I am a good looking black chow living in San Diego County.  I will be eleven in November 2004. 

I have been a cat aficionado since I was born.  I suspect cats have caused me to go deaf, but the study and pursuit of cats is my reason for living.    My New Yard

I have requested a cat of my own every birthday, Christmas, anniversary, etc., but my human is allergic and she doesn't think I'd be careful with one even if it was mine.  More about the human later.  The Human 

The picture is me at Iron Mountain, just months after the legendary October 2003 firestorm.  This photo was my 2003 holiday card.  I couldn't have been more pleased at the dramatic outdoorsy photo, and unlike many holiday photos over the years, I am not wearing a Santa hat or reindeer ears.  Family Photos.
